4514.“雅各说”表外在的古教会。这从“雅各”的代表清楚可知,“雅各”是指古教会(参看4439节)。由于古教会和其它所有教会一样,是外在和内在的,故在圣言中,“雅各”代表外在教会,“以色列”代表内在教会。
Potts(1905-1910) 4514
4514. And Jacob said. That this signifies the external Ancient Church, is evident from the representation of Jacob, as being the Ancient Church (see n. 4439). And as the Ancient Church, like every church, is external and internal, by Jacob in the Word is represented the external church, and by Israel the internal.
Elliott(1983-1999) 4514
4514. 'Jacob said' means the external Ancient Church. This is clear from the representation of 'Jacob' as the Ancient Church, dealt with in 4439. And since the Ancient Church, like every other Church, is external and internal, 'Jacob' in the Word represents the external Church and 'Israel' the internal, 4286.
Latin(1748-1756) 4514
4514. `Dixit Jacob': quod significet Antiquam Ecclesiam externam, constat a repraesentatione `Jacobis' quod sit Antiqua Ecclesia, de qua n. 4439; et quia Ecclesia Antiqua, sicut unaquaevis Ecclesia, est externa et interna, per `Jacobum' in Verbo repraesentatur externa, et per `Israelem' interna, [n. 4286].
